A million apologies to anyone who has been flooded with ‘comment notification’ emails today from the blog.
For some spectacularly stupid reason – although it might be a bug – WordPress has changed the default setting so that people receive these notifications unless they uncheck the option below the comment form (see the red arrow above).
There’s a discussion about the problem at the WordPress support forum today – here
I’m hoping they’ll fix this very soon, but for now just make sure you uncheck that box when you’re commenting.
Sorry again everyone, it’s been infuriating for you all.
PS And a million more sorries for not replying yet to people who contacted me about it, it’s been another one of those days.
